Extremely nice place to visit and enjoy a unique atmosphere. Live music on some of the nights that I have been. The food and service is consistent and great!

My son and I drove from Southaven hoping to try the catfish. The place was closed at 7 on a Saturday night. Are y'all still open? No one answered the phone? When should we try to drive down again?

We stopped in with a party of 11 after a funeral. We had to wait until the whole party got there to be seated, which I understand. I told the hostess when they arrived in the parking lot and she gave us two 6-seater tables back to back. The first of us got seated as the others unloaded kids from the car and headed to the building. The hostess walked by our table and told me if another group got there before they walked inside she was giving the second table away. A party of two walked up right before our other members walked in and she seated them at our second table. The other members of our party walked in immediately after the party of two was seated and the hostess yelled at my Mom and told her that is how they did things and we could pull up 6 more chairs at our 6 seater table if we wanted to stay or we could leave. She was absolutely hateful and should be ashamed of herself. Our waitress lost out on a party of 11 because of the hostesses hateful behavior and we will never go back.

Tried Taylor Grocery during a recent trip to Oxford based on the recommendation of a friend and I'm glad we listed. Really cool location and our service was great. We had some of the best fried catfish I've had in a long time and I look forward to going back the next time we're in Oxford.

I have been to Taylor Grocery twice in the past few weeks. The service is excellent. I had grilled fish with baked potato and salad on both occasions. The first time, it was the best meal I have ever had there. The fish was cooked to perfection. Salad was nice and fresh and the baked potato was good but could have been a little hotter. The second trip made me say I probably would not go back. The fish was watery as though they took it out of water put hardly any seasoning on it and grilled it. It had no flavor and the texture was awful because it seemed saturated in water. Again the baked potato could have been hotter. The salad was very fresh. Now for the worst part.... The live music is so loud you cannot even hear the person across the table from you. Most people like to visit and enjoy each others company at dinner. That's a joke. The waitress has to be in your face to help you. It's so loud you don't even want to try and tell the proprietors about your issues, you just want to get out of there.

I've been coming to Taylor grocery for over two decades now. I've lived, worked, graduated and owned a store in Oxford, been bringing friends and family to this establishment for so long. Used to hang out with Lynn (owner) on the front porch in my earlier years. We had Taylor Grocery cater my daughters graduation party couple of years ago. I have a black and white framed photo by Adam Smith of Taylor Grocery in my home. I say all of this bc I am no stranger to this place. It holds dear to me! We drove over tonight from Sardis bc my husband was playing music there. I have lived in Savannah, Ga for 16 years so I was so excited to come back! I have never in my life been treated so poorly and degrading from a hostess. Sarah (Lynn's daughter) is the hostess that is the most rude, patronizing person I have ever interacted with. I have worked for years in the restaurant industry, and I can not imagine treating a customer the way she did. I also tend to not post negative reviews bc I know how difficult this industry is. But this is about the personality and attitude of a staff which happens to be the owner. Which brings in so many questions about not giving a care of being polite to customers because why? Taylor grocery will always have business no matter the reviews or complaints or how rude you are. Tonight, I waited my turn and simply, with a soft voice, kindly asked if I could sit at the table in the back that was empty and faced a brick wall in a corner (we were there when they opened) so I could eat and watch my husband. There was no one waiting. And Sarah lost her mind, came at me verbally aggressive. It will make this review too long to share everything she said to me. After I not once even got to say anything to her during her berating of me, she threw her hands up and said you have to go and talk to "him" (Lynn) like I was some huge problem to her! I don't care if she owns it, she needs to be removed from hospitality. I think she enjoys bullying people. I realize it is a high traffic and turnover place, but never was I planning on sitting and holding that lil table all night long. I was so excited about eating catfish in my old fave spot, and watching my husband for a set. Quite honestly she might be the meanest boned human being I have ever encountered. My husband proceeded to go in and ask what happened. And she says "well she chose to get upset". Needless to say, I left in tears/disbelief/abused and went to to my friends place St Leo to eat. I did not deserve that Taylor Grocery. Will not be back with that verbal aggressive women, Sarah. She's horrific. Taylor Grocery is cool and all, but when Sarah is there the black cloud that hangs above her of bad energy and bad vibes just ruins it all. Ps. They don't pay a dime for their musicians, they only get paid with tips. My husband is from Australia and he did it for the experience. And they get free entertainment, and treat us like that? Lynn was great as usual. But his daughter is absolutely unbelievable.

Amazing food and even better customer service. Best in Oxford for tailgating. Can't say enough about their quality and dedication to going above and beyond!

Best meal I've had while visiting Ole Miss! Do NOT miss the dessert!!! Had pork chop with gumbo, fried and blackened catfish with hush puppies that melted in your mouth!

Incredible. Very unique in many many ways. Catfish is great and it's worth the wait if you are here on a busy weekend. A must stop when visiting nearby Ole Miss. Live music most of the time and always people on the porch worth visiting with and getting to know. Never left hungry with something for just about everyone on the menu. Don't be scared by the line or the crowd. There is a line and a crowd for a reason...

If you are ever in Taylor Mississippi you must eat here. Located a few miles down the road from Oxford this place has it going on! Great food, atmosphere, live entertainment and excellent service! They don't serve alcohol but you can brown bag or bring your own cup! lol It's very reasonably priced and just lots of fun!

Catfish is great. Service is wonderful. Recommend it to my friends. It's a little far but we'll worth the trip.

I will always visit this place when I'm in town! My staff is so nice, the food is delicious, and it's such a cute small town atmosphere! I ordered the blackened chicken with a loaded baked potato and a side salad with ranch. Not a single bit of food was left after eating... it's so delicious.
